Yeah, they bother me constantly to switch, but I'd have a long outage 
(seems like they said up to 5-7 days, but I don't really remember) 
between killing DSL Extreme and turning on Uverse.  I regard that as 
either evil or incompetence on their part, and it doesn't motivate me 
strongly to become a customer.
